Thanks for the welcome, Pinkeye.
And for the understanding you always have for everyone.
Could there be another explanation for not having received a response from your former T after termination? It could be a coincidence, and maybe something happened that didn't enable him to have access to a computer, for instance. I know it's a long shot, but...from your acquaintance with him in the past, is he the kind of person who would ignore your emails, especially if you told him how you felt?
In any case, please don't assume there is no point in trying to heal further. You may feel that way now, but that's because it is still so painful for you.
I had a problem with a former T whom I was very attached to and who very much hurt me emotionally. This happened several years ago and I am still not over it, but with time and after discussing it with other people I began to understand that he must have his own problems. And now it seems more important to me what my current T thinks.
I think that with time you will feel less of a need for "approval" from your former T.
You may also decide to send him an email telling him how all this is affecting you, and even though you may not receive a reply, knowing that he read it might also have a helpful effect.(((Pinkeye)))
